DELL PowerEdge R430 1U rack server E5-2603v3 1.6GHz 6-core 96GB DDR4 3x 300GB SAS H330

DELL PowerEdge R430 1U rack server

The DELL PowerEdge R430 is a 1U rack server built around a single Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core processor running at 1.6GHz. It arrives with 96GB of DDR4 memory installed across 12 DIMM slots and three 300GB 15K SAS drives managed by a PERC H330 RAID controller supporting RAID 0/1/5/10/50/60. Dual 550W redundant power supplies and four 1GbE ports complete the baseline configuration.

Suits single-socket deployments needing dense

This server fits workloads that run on one processor and rely on 2.5-inch SAS or SATA hot-plug bays, with up to eight drive positions available. It does not suit buyers who require two processors installed, more than 96GB of memory at purchase, solid-state drives included, or an operating system pre-loaded. The single CPU and fixed 96GB memory ceiling limit expansion without hardware changes.

Single Intel Xeon E5-2603v3 six-core 1.6GHz

The system ships with one E5-2603v3 CPU; a second socket exists but remains empty unless you add another compatible processor. This single-socket starting point determines licensing costs, memory-channel count and the maximum 384GB RAM ceiling reachable only with two CPUs. Verify whether your workload needs the second processor before ordering.
